New Resource: Eat Healthy, Be Active Community Workshops
The Eat Healthy ● Be Active Community Workshop Series builds on concepts from the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2010 and 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans by providing detailed tips for how to put these recommended behaviors into practice. The workshops are designed to move participants from the “thinking” phase to taking desired health actions. Six one-hour community workshops were developed. Each workshop includes a lesson plan, learning objectives, talking points, hands-on activities, videos, and handouts (available in English and Spanish). The workshops are designed for community educators, health promoters, dietitians/nutritionists, cooperative extension agents, and others to teach to adults in a wide variety of community settings.
To download the workshops or presentations visit: http://www.health.gov/dietaryguidelines/workshops
Free print copies of the Eat Healthy ● Be Active Community Workshop guides may be ordered here.
